Answer:

C(8) = $290

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Bob's Plumbing charge a flat fee of $50, then it is the y-intercept.

As detailed in the given problem, x is the number of hours they work.

They charge $30 for every x number of hours on the job. This represents the slope.

C(x) represents the total cost of working for x number of hours.

Given these factors, we can establish the following function rule:

C(x) = 30x + 50

To evaluate the function for 8 hours of work:

C(8) = 30(8) + 50

C(8) = 240 + 50

C(8) = 290

Therefore, the cost of working for 8 hours is $290.

Write the equation of the line that passes through (−2, 6) and (2, 14) in slope-intercept form.

MakcuM [25]

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The first step is to find the slope using the provided coordinates (-2, 6) and (2, 14). We can do that using the y1 - y2 / x1 - x2, like so:

6 - 14 / -2 - 2
-8 / -4
2

The slope is two, so we immediately know the answer is either A or B.

Now, plot the two points on graphing paper and determine where the line intersects the y-axis to find the y-intercept...

My graph shows the line intersecting the y-axis at 10, therefore the correct answer is:
y = 2x + 10
